I take supplements: B12,
Vitamin
D
and Iron (the latter not so regularly because even the gentlest ones mess up with my tummy) My GP wants me to go onto HRT. I kept on telling him that my symptoms were not new and had been with me all my life. He is adamant that it is all to do with menopause.

I’ve been taking 10,000iu of
vitamin
D
(with co factors) most days since my low D test in 2022, but the levels are still not in the optimal range. This could also be due to the parathyroid issues.

Calcium supplements - drawbacks
Was not prescribed calcium supplement or Vit D, taking the latter with K2 following advice from the forum. Now concerned about taking a calcium supplement given that there has been some (old) research indicating that it could be harmful to heart, kidneys and colon! Advice would be welcome. I try to ensure

Pain and struggling with weight loss
My fatigue has improved slightly (I have upped my
vitamin
D
) and trying to eat better. I am also really struggling with my weight. I am a vet nurse so am on my feet all day so don’t consider myself not active and I try to eat healthy but I feel hungry all the time! Is this an Endo thing?
